As Asphodel's fierce offense continued, she hadn't stopped waving her rapier for a single moment.
The pressurized trails of blood that struck Netherius slowly burned through his bone armor, and when Asphodel's grin grew wider, she cast a spell that generated a massive blood shockwave, sending the necromancer dozens of meters away from her.
More pieces of Netherius' bone armor hit the ground as his defense slowly crumbled. Still, the man was not ready to give up and mustered all of his strength to absorb the remaining necrotic energy from the necropolis.
When his spell activated, Asphodel couldn't continue her attacks as it felt like gravity was pushing her back whenever she tried to approach the necromancer.
Nevertheless, the vampire mother felt a bit satisfied when she saw the death ichor that was corrupting her surroundings slowly shrinking toward Netherius.
